Work Accident Attorney in Ewing Township, NJ
30+ Years of Combined Experience Fighting for Injured Workers
When a workplace accident leaves you injured, the legal path forward isn’t always obvious. Vindigni & Zeka Law Group represents injured workers and their families in personal injury matters, including work accident cases, across New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Founded and led by Anthony J. Vindigni, Esq. and Sami Zeka, Esq., the firm brings more than 30 years of combined legal experience to every case and is prepared to negotiate a settlement or take a case to trial when the situation demands it.
Ewing Township sits in Mercer County, where workplaces range from construction sites and industrial facilities to state agency headquarters. Whatever the setting, injured workers may have more than one legal avenue available: workers’ compensation benefits through their employer and, in some circumstances, a separate personal injury claim against a negligent third party. Our role is to identify every avenue of recovery that applies to your situation.
Work Accident Scenarios We Handle
Ewing Township’s workplaces include construction sites, industrial operations, and the offices of state agencies such as NJDOT and the New Jersey State Police. Each environment carries its own injury risks, and the legal picture grows more complex when multiple parties are involved.
Common workplace accident circumstances that give rise to personal injury claims include:
- Construction site falls and scaffold collapses
- Machinery and equipment failures
- Hazardous material exposure
- Injuries caused by a negligent subcontractor or property owner
- Defective tools or products manufactured by a third party
- Premises-related hazards on a job site
When a party other than the employer contributed to an accident, an injured worker may have grounds for a personal injury claim independent of any workers’ compensation filing. Injuries that can support these claims include broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, crush injuries, burns, and falls from height.
Damages an Injured Ewing Township Worker May Pursue
Workers’ compensation benefits in New Jersey cover medical treatment and a portion of lost wages, but they don’t include compensation for pain and suffering. A personal injury claim against a negligent third party may address that gap. Through such a claim, an injured worker may seek past and future medical costs, lost income during recovery, reduced earning capacity if the injury causes lasting impairment, and damages for pain and suffering.
New Jersey applies a modified comparative negligence rule: an injured person can pursue damages as long as they aren’t more than 50% at fault for the accident, and any recovery is reduced in proportion to their share of fault. Two key deadlines apply. The statute of limitations for a personal injury claim is two years from the date of injury under N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2(a), and injured workers must notify their employer within 90 days of the accident to preserve workers’ compensation rights. Missing either deadline can limit or bar recovery, so consulting an attorney early matters.
